While checking my latest visa bill I came across a charge from Coastal Web Solutions. Never heard of them so I did a quick web search and found many other complaints of fraudulent charges from them recently. The only link I can find between them and me...their web site www.coastwebtech.com is hosted by Jag! I'm not saying they managed to hack into Jags billing system but thought I'd mention it for others to watch out for...

edit- I shouldn't say hosted by Jag, I should say registered by jag...

Hrm...

Well, this is certainly different!

They aren't hosted by JagPC, but they do use JagPC for their Registrar...

Let me do a little more sleuthing!

Are you sure that company is making the fraudulent charges? I found a report indicating that it is a victim in this matter too, having its name abused: http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/...Off0303536.htm

The charge on my account reads "COASTAL WEB SOLUTIONS 760-994-4853 CA" so it definitely looks like http://www.coastwebtech.com/

An update on this...credit card company called today, inquiring about a possible fraudulent charge to my account, and sure enough, an unauthorized charge of 4.95 was made by Synergetic Experts, AKA Synergetic-design.com. And hey..they're also registered by Jag! They're most likely the same bunch of crooks...same website except for the company name...just an fyi.

What is your beef? JPC is merely the registration service Provider, they have nothing to do with the domain name, the name is owned by

The domain was mere bought at http://www.aletianic.com/ which is JPC domain registration service....

Sheesh relax.
Told by who?

My beef is that they're a bunch of frauds. Is this not acceptable in the Open Discussion forum??

I never relax, I will be able to relax when I am dead.... maybe...

And I am sure they are a fraud, but your post implies they are some how affiliated with JPC or that JPC can do something about it, neither is true

There outta be a way for an eNom reseller to say "(Please) Take your business elsewhere" so they aren't associated with scammers.

Well this is a slippery slope....

GoDaddy has gotten LOTS of bad press, and it is one of the reasons why I refuse to do business with them, for arbitrally suspending domains reported as "spammer" or "scammer"

JPC or any registrar has ZERO way to verify any of the information about a potential Scammer or spammer.

Now if they were a HOSTING cleint of JPC then they would have access to data they could use to verify the claims and take action according

How would you like it if you made someone mad online and then in turn reported you as a scammer or Spammer to Enom, whom in turn just suspended your domain name soley on some forum post or email?

This is NOT something registration companies should be doing.. the ONLY time they should get involved is when the NAME is the problem, i.e Trademark Violations, Copyright Violations, etc......

**Ron** · 06-10-2008, 08:37 PM

I didn't say their account would be suspended. They can still have their eNom registration (and their login directly at enomcentral) just the Jaguar name would come off. If eNom then wants to deal with it --or not-- that's up to them.

but why?

What proof do you have that John Fawkes, or synertec-designs is in in fact a scammer? other than some annonomus users posting that they are...

so JPC should turn away business based on that? I suspect they would be out of business rather quickly if they followed your advice...

I dunno, you have 2,300 posts. How many times have you seen this?

ahhh I see, you feel "it is better to kill 1 innocent than let 10 guilty go free" , I feel "its is better to let 10 guilty go free than have 1 innocent convicted"

Sorry, never going to agree with that...
